It’s ok to hold two opposing opinions in your mind at the same time, if the larger truth is more important. I don’t trust Zuck / Meta, but I also want them to federate with Mastodon. Even if they play power games later on, you can always jump to an instance that blocks them. The power is with you, the “user”, and that is what the web started out as and always should be. Besides, if it all turns to custard just start an indie blog and/or sail the world like the Scuttlebutt guy from NZ.

  @evan @ricmac I think he means Dominic Tarr, who's not doing social media protocols at the moment, he's focused on https://socketsupply.co/

  @ricmac @rabble we should probably have a presentation about Scuttlebutt in the #SocialCG to see what good patterns we can borrow.

  @evan @rabble Yes, Dominic, who I’ve never met but he is a fellow kiwi and incredibly smart. Will be interesting to see how his latest venture goes. Last time I wrote about him was 2021: https://thenewstack.io/scuttlebutt-decentralize-and-escape-the-social-media-rat-race/

    Scuttlebutt: Decentralize and Escape the Social Media Rat Race
    
    from Richard MacManus
    
    Even though the off-grid paradigm of Scuttlebutt takes some getting used to, its decentralized architecture for social networks is promising.
